Is there bleedthrough there on the inside of the cover?

buddy2 Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 @James J Johnson It might be. There appears to be a black spot on the 1st page below the staple where it meets the cover. theCapraAegagrus 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid price? @James J Johnson I don't think I bought it on eBay but I honestly don't remember. Color Touch not disclosed since I didn't know about it. I likely bought it many years ago likely at a convention in the early/mid 90's, I suspect not sure what I paid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you bought it in the 90s, even if you paid the going rate for a book of comparable unrestored condition, you're in for the right price now. .

KCOComics Posted October 27, 2020 Share Posted October 27, 2020 There is nothing more disappointing than buying a raw book and finding restoration years later. Still a great book to own! Presents great! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a great book to own! Presents great! @KCOComics Thanks. Yep. Of course its my fault for not looking at it close enough. At least It is good to know now so I can note it so if I ever decide to sell some comics someone else isn't disappointed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I thought you inserted that picture for the sake of diversity. Just to break up the monotony and keep it interesting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PopKulture Posted October 28, 2020 Share Posted October 28, 2020 As I scrolled down thru the other opinions, I knew someone would point out that patch that looked like color touch. Boardies are pretty sharp... Still a great book to own. Mine has a two or three inch rip and I never got around to replacing it and now I probably never will! buddy2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
